Newest Combo's (lots of pics)

Creatures in the Forest bracelet featuring my new purple butterfly   





Boo-Bear bracelet made for my Chihuahua/shih Tzu mix Bear

The spikey silver represents her collar, she's a tough 5lb dog you know   Walk beads represent the walks we go on. The plain silver is the love within bead because I love her so much   The bow-wow beads are from Lexi Beads and have a small space where I can engrave her name which I hope to do soon.






Gerber Daisy bracelet — this one is mostly made up of rehomed beads from members here, including both scales, dillos and pearls   



Beads On Acid bracelet. Funny story…



…I was browsing around my local Pandora store when one of the sales ladies saw my Tb bracelet. She grabbed my wrist and said it was like looking at beads on acid She was amazed at all the different colors emanating from them. I thought that was a funny yet truthful way to describe them. It was actually quite flattering as she was completely mesmerized by it. I loved the reaction when she saw it, wished I could have captured her face in a picture. I don’t know why it makes me feel so good when others like my combos. I build them for me but it is still heartwarming to rcv compliments like that  

Your first one is like a forest it gives me a feel of nature and walking out. I thnk your dog will like her bracelet even as a collar    both look very cute. Gerber Daisy is my favorite I like the mute purple and the teal green mix and I under stand the Pandora lady. I can bet in the sun shine that bracelet must glow like it is alive.

Fist two are just above the moon, you have some lovely bead from other brands!!!

Beautiful bracelets Love the description of "beads on acid"   And your little Bear   

In your first combo, is that a TB blue goldstone below the fern leaf silver? I've never seen one so sparkly!

Love your combos! I'm especially love of your Creatures in the Forest.
Your Bear is sooo adorable. Love how you picked out the beads for her. Great representation.

I'm also surprised at how you cohesive your rehomed bracelet is. I would have thought it would be more eclectic. Did you have a color scheme in mind when the beads were rehomed, or did it just happen?

I've gotta wonder how the Pandora lady would know what the effects of acid are...? hehe.

I love all your creations - but I totally adore Bear - he looks beautiful Chihuahuas are pretty fierce little creatures whom I actually am more weary of than Staffies and their likes, but surely the Shi Tzu part has a calming effect on your feroucious little 5lb treasure   He does remind me a lot of my beloved late Teddy (a Lhasa, so a little bit bigger )

Thank you Michelle   my forest bracelet just came together quite by accident, I love it when that happens and its a nice result   I wonder if Bears bracelet would fit her as a collar, I will have to try that, thanks!

Thank you strike! That is a blue goldstone   I found a pretty good one with 2 really sparkly spots that show up in just the right place   I wish they were all that sparky.

Thank you so much!
In regards to my rehomed bracelet, I have always wanted a purple and teal bracelet and decided to build one starting with a few beads I got from members here   I am a sucker for purple and green so I snapped them up knowing I would be able to use them eventually   
For the beads on acid, I wondered if she meant the beads themselves looked like they were on acid or if she meant she felt like she was on acid looking at them   same difference I guess

Thank you Trollperle! Yes the shitzhu part of her definitly helps the ferocious chihuahua side    Bear really is a sweet heart, a little princess-diva but a sweet heart none the less. And thank you for showing us your sweet Teddy     He was adorable! So sorry for your loss  

Love all your bracelets!! Especially the one for Boo Bear - love those colors together!!!

Beautiful bracelets and cute dog - love the Gerber daisy one - could you tell me where you found the purple variegated flower bead? I've only seen one and I sadly missed it!

Beautiful bracelets , but Bear is just gorgeous. She reminds me of my sister's dog, Teddy, a Pomeranian and Shih tzu cross. Sadly, he is no longer here, tho he had a very long and happy life

The first combo colors are something that I would wear any day. The second combo is a fantastic blend of colors from my youth. I think Beads on Acid is a great combo, too. I think you have a lot of great beads there.

oh i love your bracelets esp the first it has so much going on, yet it's muted and earthy too. LOOOOVE!! still, the others are gorg. as well! i've heard "charm bracelet on speed" before, lol. your pup is too cute!

Absolutely love your bracelets (and your Boo-Bear) and how special it must have been (like you said) for someone to notice and make such a comment x

Thanks so much! I got the variegated flower bead from Trollbeads Gallery. I usually miss all the good uniques but I must have logged on at just the right time   Thank you for noticing and asking about it, it is one of my favorite beads/finds

Aww Teddy was so cute! He very much reminds me of Bear   Thank you for sharing Teddy's wonderful little face  I am sorry for yours and your sisters loss   They give us so much happiness and unconditional love, but its so hard to see them go.
